    Ireland meaning & definition 1 of Ireland.


  • A country with a rich culture and heritage, plus lots of drinking. Stereotyped by the world as being farmers and leprechauns (That accent that Richard Gere uses in the Jackal actually does not exist)

    Oppressed for centuries and today divided, we are now ruled by corrupt politicians who are more interested in the contents of their next brown envelope than the welfare of the country.

    Ireland meaning & definition 2 of Ireland.


  • A small location on the western edge of Europe, it has a long and colourful history.
    After 600 years of oppression, and several previous attempts (which coined the phrase The fighting Irish - As they never lay down and accepted occupiers) the Irish revolted in 1916 to go on a defeat the British empire and force them to withdraw from the nation.
    Humiliated, the British made an agreement to leave the Island, except for 6 northern counties to save face from absolute defeat. Ireland has been the thorn in Britains side for centuries.
    The withdrawl was due to several reasons.
    1/ International condemnation and pressure for their treatment of the Irish.
    2/ The brittish were unable to control the Irish as every man in the street was willing to lay down his life for his country and his freedom.
    3/ The losing battle they were fighting on the streets of Dublin and towns around the country was humiliating for an Empire.
    Irelands population was once peaked at 12 million in the 1800s.... a century on, the Irish population is 3.5 million.
    This is due to brittish rule forcing famine around the country in which millions of innocent people starved to death or died of the plague and hundreds of thousands of others were forced to emigrate, mostly to the USA, Australia and Argentina.
    After the Brittish left, the Irish fell into civil war over the agreement to let them leave and keep the 6 counties. Some were for this, as the Brittish were fucking off, some were against it as they were willing to keep fighting them until they surrenderd and withdrew unconditionaly.
    The only reason Northern Ireland is still under UK control is that during the civil war in the south, brittish plantations were put in the north, sending over hundreds of thousands of UK citizens to dilute the Irish population in these parts and heavy millitary guard, the northern Irish people went on to be treated like shit as the south tried to resolve its internal political problems.
    In the 60s, another Irish uprising was born in the form of the IRAs bombing campaign. After terrorisng the brittish forces in Northern Ireland, again the Brittish allowed it to fall into chaos and lost complete control.
    This resulted in Bloody Sunday, when Brittish soldiers marched into an Irish estate and gunned down several innocent, unarmed irish people, including women and children, seemingly shooting at random and at those aiding the injured.
    Outraged, the Irish brought the bombin campaign to London where they caused chaos once more. The most notable and audacious boming was on the Brittish Government.
    The IRA bombed a hotel the entire Brittish government were staying in, unfortunatly, failing to kill their leader, maggie thatcher.
    For this, throughout the 80s and to a lesser extent, there is still racisim from brittish people towards the Irish for their assault on the UK. If they were educated enough, they would understand that this was a drop in the ocean compared to what they have done to the Irish over the last 600 years.
    Its only a matter of time before Northern Ireland comes back into Irish control as the Brittish government no longer really holds an interest in it as there has peace between our nations for 20 years.
    Some may hold contempt towards us, but we dont really give a shit, because we all hate them anyway, and we took our country back, so we really couldnt give a fuck what they do or think over there.

    Ireland meaning & definition 3 of Ireland.


  • The best place on the planet. Everyone rocks there and its so green and lovely. We have our own language which is one of the longest surviving in the world but the vast majority of us speak English because those bastards invaded our island and took all our land and opressed us with huge taxes that just went straight into the King of Englands pocket, but then in the early 20th century we fought back and won most of the country back (we didnt get 6 counties in the north). Now we have a really bad government but who cares IREALND ROCKS!
    P.s. Noone in Ireland sounds the way you americans think we do. And not everyone in Ireland is called SEAMUS!
